Bug in the Tummy

Bug in the Tummy

"I need security footage from all the wings as well....... especially from the night of my boy's visit at the club" King ordered as he glanced at the file Charlton had just placed on his desk. Charlton looked at King with questioning eyes, wanting to ask the reason for the sudden command, but then decided against the idea.

"will do King" Charlton replied standing beside King while holding his huge tablet in his hands.

The crime lord was busy with his work from the early morning in a really foul mood, it wasn't anywhere near suitable to ask anything that could trigger the king in the worst way.

But what could be the reason?

Well.....the reason behind his bad mood was none other than his own boyfriend. It was another day with another episode of puking followed as a newfound routine which in return made the king start his day early.

Mago seemed really upset and grouchy when he vomited his guts into the toilet bowl, however, the stubborn boy has once again refused to get any medical examination proposed by his loving yet annoyed boyfriend. The boy turned his back on King and pretended to sleep until he heard the door of the bathroom close shut roughly.

King sighed irritated after closing the door behind him, Mago had something going on with his stomach and the young boy was prioritising his impractical thoughts about it being 'nothing serious'. King was so done with the boy that he needed to distract his mind desperately, therefore, the crime lord decided to spend his day working rather than getting mad at the younger and then eventually lashing out at him.

That will be a disaster.

And so he went to his office before his usual time. Charlton was surprised to see King at the first light but he found it best not to question him until that frown was down.

While the crime lord looked into the file Charlton had just placed in front of him, examining the content, a thought came to his mind.

"where is Lucca?" he asked.

"Don't know King. Hasn't seen him since yesterday" the right-hand man replied briefly. King scoffed in return and pushed the file away before filling a glass of dark liquor.

"Did he run away now?" the crime lord tsked as he took a long sip from the shiny glass. The answer to his mocking question came as a swift knock at the door. King permitted the outsider in his gruff voice, the door opened revealing a frowny-looking Lucca.

"fucking hell! This shit isn't easy" Lucca muttered lowly but enough loud that the other two could hear him clearly. He marched towards the huge mahogany desk and leaned across a chair right in front of King.

The crime lord raised his daunting brow as he racked Lucca's frame up and down.

"I have looked deeply into the matter King. That man Logan Grey isn't coming back soon. He is on some foreign travelling regarding his business" Lucca explained with a loud sigh and Charlton chuckled beside King silently making Lucca glare at him.

Well... the right-hand man had the reason.

It all started the day before. King was assigning some work to Charlton about his lovely boyfriend when Lucca jumped right in and demanded that he should be the one taking charge of everything that relates to his tiny majesty since he is the right-hand man to Mago.

Although the task wasn't simple and Lucca lacked practice with the mind-tiring job of information digging using lethal ways, the man was adamant about taking the said duty until he was successful.

Charlton had scowled and King had agreed.

Hence, Lucca is serving what he has brought upon himself.

"when will he return?" King asked gulping the remaining alcohol down his throat.

"don't know the exact date yet king...........but soon" Lucca explained with another sigh escaping his lips. King hummed in return and resumed with his file that he had pushed away a few minutes ago, he tried to focus on his daily routine but his mind was all jumbled with the thoughts of his tiny fierce boyfriend.

Mago was mad at him too.

"It's so difficult here, nobody opens their mouth easily. They either understand money or a good old weapon" Lucca complained about the people he dealt with, successfully taking King's and Charlton's attention.

"I was better off at my other job because here?........ I am seriously losing my brain cells." Lucca continued and Charlton finally snickered with a voice.

"you didn't have any brain cells to begin with" the right-hand man commented making Lucca glare at him.

King watched between them silently.

"excuse me?" Lucca warned playfully as he stood up from his place, standing as tall as Charlton.

"weren't you the one asking to deal with all the matters regarding your tiny majesty?" Charlton teased with a smirk and Lucca glared harder, pinching his eyes as he pursed his lips.

"you don't have to rub it in my face, Charlie. It's been long since I have dealt with stuff like that. I will get better with time" Lucca said, putting emphasis on the nickname.

Charlton chuckled humorously, mocking Lucca for his defence.

They seemed to forget that the king was with them in the room, the crime lord was just listening to their banter with a really unamused face.

'They were behaving like a certain someone' King thought with a sigh.

"oh, I don't have to rub it in your face or anything like that Lucy. It's already clear that you lack abilities" Charlton fired back with a smirk, taking Lucca's irritation higher.

The man opened his mouth to retort back but he got interrupted by a loud growl coming from the ignored boss in the room.

"enough!" King yelled loudly, making them both flinch at their spot. They both stared at King and his flaring nose as they realized what they were just doing. The crime lord wasn't in a good mood already and they were doing nothing but fuelling his anger.

"how old are you two huh? Bickering like fucking teenagers?" he asked angrily.

"he started it" Both Charlton and Lucca pointed at each other simultaneously. King glared at them with murder in his eyes as he stood up from his chair, pushing it back roughly making it collide with the wall behind.

"shut up!!" another roaring scolding boomed in the room and two adult men lowered their heads. Lucca scowled at Charlton sassily and the other rolled his eyes.

"you! Go get the security footage right fucking now......" King hissed at Charlton with gritted teeth ".....and You, go stand there in the corner with your face towards the wall!" King ordered his men, seriously mad at their childish behaviour.

Charlton scurried away from the office before he could get a punishment that was not suitable for his age while Lucca found his place in the corner of the room, embarrassed.

..........

Whenever the soulmate duo engages in gossip, the huge empty living room turns into a totally different atmosphere. Their loud giggles and excited talks fill the air around them with joy and easiness, the dark and dangerous aura of the mafia seems less of a hassle than it actually is.

Well....this is the opinion of the respectable staff.

Mago told Mickey everything that happened in the past days while the boys enjoyed different snacks and drinks, courtesy of Jayce. The man has gone all out with his newly made desserts to other spicy and savoury snacks.

And why wouldn't he when Mago has asked him with wounded puppy-like eyes.

"wow, baby......this is really a piece of great news. You becoming a part of the mafia is like the best fucking news I could ever hear. It's like you are finally there where you deserve to be" Mickey smiled patting Mago's fluffy head tucked under his chin.

The younger boy tilted his head to look up at Mickey and frowned with his mouth covered in whipping cream from a cream roll he had in his hand, conveying to him silently that he didn't get what his friend had said.

Mickey smiled in return.

"don't run your little brain my cutie pie, you will understand when the time will come. Besides, there's already so much that is going on in your life" Mago hummed in return. Mickey was right, the younger was yet to know about his parents and his stolen status in the mafia and he will get to know it soon and on his own.

"I know right? And above all the shit, I am getting sick almost daily and now King is mad at me" Mago mumbled against Mickey's chest and the older rubbed his back in concern.

"what do you mean getting sick? Are you eating junk again?" he asked and Mago tsked. He had heard the same question from his boyfriend before, who was not very happy with Mago in the morning, and he didn't want to repeat his answer.

"no junk Mickey. I got a bug in my tummy" Mago corrected as he slapped his tummy and Mickey frowned, sitting up quickly. Mago also sat up and looked at Mickey with questioning eyes.

"A bug?" the older asked.

"Mhm....a huge bug" the boy confirmed as he leaned forward to get the pickle-filled puff pastry from the designated plate and bit on it deliciously.

"I am puking my guts almost daily now because of that prick" Mickey's frown deepened as he watched his soulmate eating a mouthful of 'junk'.

"you have a bug in your tummy and you are eating this much?" he asked trying to assess the oblivious boy and his chosen words about the bug, carefully.

"Hmm....because I am also hungry all the damn time besides being sick. And you know what I think Mickey?" the boy asked seriously and Mickey held his breath for a second.

"What?" the older asked with a loud exhale.

"I think that I am eating for two" Mago mumbled incoherently as he chewed his food with extra sauce oozing out of it and Mickey raised a brow in question.

"Bug and me" the boy chirped with happy giggles but soon those giggles turned into loud laughing fit when Mickey darted an unamused look at Mago.

"you are so silly baby" Mickey said as he pinched the younger's cheek and pulled him across his lap so that the younger was close to Mickey.

Mago nodded agreeing instantly.

"but seriously, you should see a doctor in case it is something else" he suggested as he tucked a long strand of Mago's hair behind his ear, caressing his side face.

"I don't know Mickey. You know how I fucking hate those places" Mago mumbled, placing his fluffy head on his soulmate's shoulder.

"I know and that's why I am saying this. You should have your stomach checked before it becomes a huge problem and you have no other choice than to visit the doctor" Mago narrowed his eyes at the true words Mickey just said.

"Now you are scaring me Mr" Mago giggled and Mickey followed. The older was right though, that morning sickness wasn't leaving the boy alone for the past few days and it could really become a problem if he neglected it for long.

"I will talk to Raye about it. That old ass had been nagging me for a doctor too" he said recalling the bitter moments of their unusual argument in the morning.

King was really annoyed.

"it's because he cares for you" Mickey reminded and Mago nodded agreeing but then he jumped as he remembered something.

"thinking of caring. I know someone who cares about you too..." Mago wiggled his brows playfully making Mickey place a sucking kiss on his chubby cheeks. He sucked on the reddening flesh for a few seconds and left the younger's cheek with a pop.

Mago whined adorably.

"well.....your brother has to try harder baby. That shit has to suffer and make up for all those years before he gets to have anything near as affection from me" Mago smiled widely as he engulfed Mickey into a bone-crushing hug.

"That's my soulmate there. Make that fucking bitch regret his birth my bestie" Mickey laughed at his friend's remarks and hugged the boy back, falling back into their favourite cuddling position.

The boys were so busy in gossiping that they didn't notice a silhouette standing at the end of the hallway connecting to the kitchen. The man dressed as the staff leaned against the huge pillar as his eyes racked that small boy who was jumping and excitedly talking with his friend.

Mago was oblivious to the stare that was fixed on his milky exposed skin as he talked animatedly with his dear soulmate. He didn't notice anything but Jayce, who was walking past the corridor towards the friends with his hands filled with freshly baked cupcakes, noticed the man.

A look of disgusting desire painted the man's dark features and Jayce felt the need to address it right away.

"what are you doing here?" he asked in his authoritative voice making the man flinch at his spot. The worker straightened up and his eyes went wide seeing Jayce standing in front of him.

"n-nothing sir----..." Jayce didn't let the man complete his excuse, he cut him mid-sentence before he could weave a story.

"you are paid to do your job and it will be better if you do that instead of being a pervert here" Jayce roared with gritted teeth and the man paled at his spot.

"I—I am...." The man tried as he bowed his head but Jayce wasn't having it.

"get lost now and do your assigned work" he scolded harshly watching the man as he stumbled and rushed farther away before turning into another corridor.

Leaving Jayce to watch his back with a frown.
